What Violin Making Can Teach Us About mRNA Therapeutic Quality
Managing the mRNA supply chain and working in mRNA process development may not look anything like the work a luthier does to hew an instrument from an ancient spruce tree. But violin craftmanship actually serves as a fantastic metaphor for the challenging work the mRNA therapeutics space is tackling in sourcing and qualifying raw materials and optimizing the critical IVT reaction.

The Price Is… Almost Right: mRNA Edition! COGS Reduction Strategies
The following article will outline the current state of COGS in the mRNA industry and the work he and his colleagues undertook to more effectively utilize raw materials. But heaven forbid this be your normal conference panel write-up. No, below I share Parrella’s insights, but in the form of a never-before released episode of The Price is Right…or perhaps more fittingly given the state of the industry today, this spectacle is more aptly titled: The Price is…Sort Of, Almost, Not Quite Right!

The story of how Moderna brought one of the first mRNA vaccines to the market has all the makings of a legend we will pass down through generations. However, unlike the legends of King Arthur or The Fountain of Youth, we can celebrate that Moderna’s legendary journey was — and still is — real. Not only did the mRNA vaccines help return life to normal, but they also kickstarted the mRNA therapeutic renaissance we’re happily experiencing today.
